FOREST LODGE, 

Honnedaga Lake. 

Post Office Address: 
A. D. Barber, Manager. ,, , „ ,. -, », „ 

Honnedaga, Herkimer Co., N. Y, 

This Clubhouse, after ten years of the rental system, has again 
been placed on the same basis as the other two Lodges, whereby 
the property and management come more closely under the 
control of the Trustees and may confidently be expected to give 
gfreater satisfaction. 

The Club has been fortunate in securing the services of Mr. 
A. D. Barber, as Manager, who has been well and favorably 
known for his former success in the same capacity. 

The engagement of Mrs. Augusta Schenck, as housekeeper, 
who has had wide experience in this capacity both at Mountain 
Lodge and other Adirondack resorts, is sufficient guarantee that 
this department will be well cared for and will conduce to the 
comfort of members and guests. 

It is hoped that the members may, by their patronage of the 
Lodge this year, demonstrate that it can be run to advantage 
under this system, without showing a deficit at the end of the 
season. 

The railroad stations for Forest Lodge are Forestport, on the 
Adirondack and St. Lawrence division of the New York Central 
R. R. , and Alder Creek, on the Rome, Watertown & Ogdensburg 
R. R., under control of the New York Central R. R. (For parti- 
culars relating to railroad service, see latest time tables.) 

Mr. George W. Crandall, who now carries the Honnedaga. 
and North Lake mail, runs a stage daily (except on Sundays), 
which conveys passengers to the head of Honnedaga Lake; this 
stage leaves Forestport about 9 a.m. The fare from Forestport 
to Honnedaga Lake is $1.50, and from Alder Creek $1.75 for

Leave the railroad cars at McKeever. The Club, having pur- 
chased all rights of James Lenehan in the McKeever to Wolf

and Wolf Lake. It keeps only two teams with buckboards in 
regular service, and engagements should always be made before- 
hand with W. S. Weeden, Manager, at Bisby Lodge, via McKeever, 
N. Y. If more passengers than can be taken on the two buck-

sengers are carried; but for passengers leaving the Lodge later 
than nine o'clock at night to meet the night train, there is an 
extra charge of $2.00 for each passenger; there is also a corre- 
sponding extra charge of $2.00 for each passenger leaving 
McKeever for Bisby Lodge before 7 o'clock in the morning. The

ANNUAL REPORT. 

In accordance with the requirements of the Constitu- 
tion, the Board of Trustees respectfully submits, through 
its President, its Annual Report for the Club year end- 
ing March 13, 1906. 

The last Annual Report by Judge Higley was so ex- 
haustive and gave such complete information that the 
Trustees take pleasure in referring the members to it, in 
order to refresh their memories as to the Club's valuable 
possessions and the many advantages of membership. 

MEMBERSHIP. 

The total number of our membership shares is 500. 
Of these 130 are in the Club's treasury. The remaining 
370 are owned by 296 members. At the last meeting 
we had 292 members ; since then we have lost by resigna- 
tion and otherwise t.'j, and 31 new members were elected 
during the year, so that we now have 296 members. 

FINANCIAL. 

The clear and excellent report of our Treasurer gives in 
detail the receipts and expenditures for the past Club 
year. It shows that we received during the year from 
all sources $31,122.62, and paid out $30,729.36, leaving 
a balance of $393.26 in the treasury as at March 8, 1906. 

No Treasury Shares were sold during the past year. 
From the receipts from the Gould Paper Co., for use of 
Limekiln and Moose River for floating logs, the Qub 
received $3,280.22, and with an additional appropriation 
by the Board of Trustees to make it an even $4,000, four 



ANNUAL REPORT. I3 

Club bonds were purchased from the FideHty Trust Co. 
of Buffalo, and cancelled, thus reducing- the bonded in- 
debtedness of the Club to $70,000. 



The Club has met with a great loss in the death of 
Mr. Hazard Lasher, who has served the Club so faith- 
fully as Trustee and Vice-President. He was always 
willing and anxious to give his time in the interests of the 
Club and he will be greatly missed. A special meeting 
of the Board was held on February 21, 1906, at which 
proper resolutions concerning his death were adopted, to 
be engrossed and sent to Mrs. Lasher. All of the Trus- 
tees who were able to attend his funeral paid that last 
tribute of respect to their deceased fellow member. 

The Trustees regret exceedingly to report the recent 
death of Mr. A. A. Crawford. Owing to ill-health he 
was obliged to retire from his duties early in the season. 
The services of Mr. and Mrs. Crawford were very valu- 
able while they were in charge of Bisby Lodge, and gave 
unqualified satisfaction. To Mrs. Crawford the Trus- 
tees extend their heartfelt sympathy and assurances of 
their best wishes. 



SUPERINTENDENT. 



The Trustees appointed Mr. Lewis L. Grant as Super- 
intendent of the Club, and he commenced his duties on 
the first day of January. In a general way he is expected 
to inform himself as to the conditions of all parts of the 
Club tract, especially in reference to the timber. He will 



14 ANNUAL REPORT. 

have charge of the gamewardens and see that the laws 
of the State and the rules of the Club are carried out in 
every particular. He will also have charge of the tax 
matters, a very important duty, in which he will be as- 
sisted by his father, who has had previous experience m 
this work and whose services proved of great value. Mr. 
Grant has already furnished abundant proof of the wis- 
dom of his appointment. 

EXCHANGE OF LAND. 

The Trustees instructed the President to arrange for 
an exchange, subject to the approval of the Club, of about 
179 acres of land fronting Nick's Lake, to be deeded to 
Mr Lyon S. deCamp for a strip of land 200 feet in 
width from the rear of the Club house at Little Moose 
to First Lake, taking in the old trail and giving us a 
splendid landing on First Lake. In addition to this the 
exchange includes a strip 300 feet wide in the rear of 
the Little Moose lots from the road entermg our property 
and extending eastWardly to the N.E. corner, of lot No. 8; 
also a strip 100 feet wide running west to a point beyond 
our reservoir and which includes the stream runnmg 
from our reservoir to Little Moose Lake. The Trustees 
are unanimous in recommending the adoption by the Club 
of this arrangement. 

FLOATING OF LOGS. 

At the September meeting the Trustees instructed the 
President and Mr. Richardson, our attorney, to meet Mr. 
Gould and his attorney, Hon. Henry W. Bentley, at 
Utica, and arrange for a settlement of damages to the

ANNUAL REPORT. 1 5 

Club by reason of the use of Moose River for the floating 
of logs later in the season than was allowed under con- 
tract between Mr. Gould and the Club. It was proven 
to the satisfaction of the representatives of the Club that 
the damage had been greatly exaggerated, and such as it 
was, was unavoidable. An agreement was made with 
Mr. Gould which will undoubtedly prevent any such 
trouble in the future in this connection. Mr. Gould also 
settled in full an old claim of several hundred dollars 
for lumber taken from his land by the Club. It is a 
pleasure to state that Mr, Gould and Mr. Bentley acted in 
the most honorable manner in all these negotiations. 

FOREST LODGE. 

The lease of "Forest Lodge," by Mr. Norman B. Nel- 
son, having expired, Mr. A. D. Barber has been ap- 
pointed as Manager and Mrs. Augusta Schenck as house- 
keeper on a salary, thus placing this Lodge on the same 
basis as Mountain and Bisby Lodges. If is expected 
that this Lodge will be even more attractive in the future 
than it has been in the past, as Mr. Barber has had ex- 
perience in that work, and we look for good results from 
the change. Those members of the Club who are espe- 
cially anxious for good fishing will find "Forest Lodge" 
has many advantages. Jones Lake Camp, which is only 
3 miles distant, has been put in good order and has had 
two additional sleeping rooms added. This lake is fam- 
ous for its fine fishing, and there are other streams and 
lakes in the vicinity which are not fished as much as 
waters more convenient to the other Club houses. 

No receipts for 1905 rental of "Forest Lodge" by Mr. 



l6 ANNUAL REPORT. 

Nelson are shown on the Treasurer's report. This is 
because the matter of purchasing the implements, hard- 
ware, supplies, etc., from Mr. Nelson has not been set- 
tled, several items being in dispute. It appears that even 
with this credit of $500 for rental the Club will be in- 
debted to Mr. Nelson several hundred dollars. 

A new wood range was purchased for "Forest Lodge," 
as well as many new cooking utensils, chinaware, etc. 
The Manager has been busy making sundry repairs to the 
Lodge, docks and boats, and will soon have things in 
comfortable condition. A man was employed by the 
Club during the past season to keep the Honnedaga 
Private Highway in proper repair. Two new boats were 
also purchased for the Lodge. 

BISBY LODGE. 

Mr. Hall, Trustee in Charge of "Bisby Lodge," re- 
ported at the last meeting of the Board of Trustees that 
there was a grove of about 400 splendid maple trees near 
the Hatchery, which could be tapped for syrup and sugar 
sufficient for the uses of the Club, with possibly some to 
dispose of to the members. He w-as authorized to estab- 
lish a plant at a cost not to exceed $150 for that pur- 
pose. 

At "Bisby Lodge" the guide house, boat houses and 
docks on Woodhull and Wolf Lakes were put in proper 
repair. Eight new boats were purchased, also a new 
team of horses, a buckboard and a large wbod range. The 
new launch purchased by the Club for Woodhull Lake 
was found to be of great advantage to the Club mem- 
bers. "Bisby Lodge" turned into the Treasury $594.13. 



ANNUAL REPORT. If 

MOUNTAIN LODGE, 

At "Mountain Lodge" the dining room was enlarged 
and a new dining room built for servants. A store and 
meatshop with coolers were also built, and repairs were 
made to the boathouse, walk, tank tower, as well as to 
the Lodge. A larger range was also installed and a 
portable cabinet oven for coal. A new Rider engine for 
pumping the cesspool was also installed. The sum of 
$678.40 was expended in putting the road in proper 
repair. 

"Mountain Lodge" turned into the Treasury $2,678.11, 
together with collectible bills against members amount- 
ing to $355.80, some of which have not yet been paid. The 
sum of $86.05 being 10 per cent, of the winter board 
receipts taken in by Mr. Zimmer during the winter of 
1905-6, and $80.17 during the winter of 1904-5 were 
received by the Club. This was in accordance with an 
agreement between Mr. Shepard, the Trustee in Charge, 
and Mr. Zimmer, the Caretaker. The team was also sold 
for $100, and for the use of the wiagon road we received 
from the Brown's Tract Lumber Company $100, which 
sum made good all damage done by the company; $101.52 
was also paid in for filling members' icehouses. The old 
note of Geo. Deis & Sons Co. for $150, for a team of 
horses, was paid, and with the loan of $500 repaid, the 
total receipts from Mountain Lodge amounted to 
$4,020.24. 

CAMPS PURCHASED. 

The Board of Trustees during the past year have 
thought it wise to purchase outright the Swanson's Dam 



l8 ANNUAL REPORT. 

Camp on West Canada Creek ; the Otter Lake Camp on 
Otter Lake ; the Miller Camp on Indian River, Township 
7, and the Board has also authorized the purchase of the 
Lindsay- Wendover Camp at Snyder Lake on Township 5, 
in order that all the members shall have equal advantage 
in their occupancy. The new Proctor Camp for which 
$600 was appropriated by the Trustees, is expected to be 
in perfect order for the opening of tlie coming season.

to purchase 15,000 Lake Trout Fingerlings and 10,000 
Brook Trout Fingerlings, to be delivered at Fulton 
Chain ; and pursuant to the authority given, arrangements 
were made with Mr. James Annin, Jr., of Caledonia 
Trout Ponds, to fill the order. 

The first shipment, a carload of 130 cans, containing 
about 12,000 Lake Trout, was received on September 
27, 1905, in fine condition, and distributed around the 
shores of Little Moose Lake by noon of that day and 
within twenty-four hours of the time they were taken 
from the hatchery ponds. Later, on October 5, 1905, the 
second shipment, including the balance of the Lake Trout 
and the 10,000 Brook Trout, was received in Hke good 
order and distributed.

The Trustees having, at their meeting in September 
last, authorized the stocking and operation of the hatch- 
ery for the present season, arrangements were made with 
William Commerford to act as Superintendent, and or- 
ders were given for the furnishing of 1,000,000 Brook 
Trout Eggs and 200,000 Lake Trout Eggs. The dealer 
who has heretofore supplied us was unable, owing to the 
unfavorable season he had had, to fill the order as to 
Brook Trout Eggs, but furnished us with 912,078 Brook 
Trout Eggs and 200,970 Lake Trout Eggs, as per meas- 
ure and average count as they were received at our

At the last report from the hatchery, one-half of the

There were evidently taken a good many more fish 
than reported, because members are very liable to neglect 
to report their catches. In this connection it seems proper 
to advise the continuance of stocking each year all our 
waters with the fish for which they are best adapted. 
The Club is so large that the natural increase is not suf- 
ficient to give all the members a satisfactory amount of 
fishing and by intelligent stocking this loss can, in a 
measure, be made up. 

LUMBERING. 

The Trustees have thought it wise not to make any 
further lumbering contracts at present because the timber 
is increasing so rapidly in value. It will not be long, how- 
ever, before it may be necessary to employ a permanent 
forester in order that the work of the cutting and the re- 
planting may be done in the most intelligent manner. The 
lumber can undoubtedly be made to make up any de- 
ficiency which the Club might find necessary by reason of 
the increased expenses in various ways. 



ANNUAL REPORT. 2$ 

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON SANITARY REGULATIONS AND 
BUILDING 

To THE Trustees of the Adirondack League Club : 

Gentlemen: — Your Building and Sanitary Committee 
begs leave to report that, through its various members 
all buildings upon the residence lakes, the hatchery and 
the outlying camps have been carefully examined. A 
well-attended meeting of the Committee was also held 
in New York on October 25th. 

For Little Moose we can report everything satisfactory 
save that the large and growing amount of sewage from 
the private camps is a source of much concern for the 
future. Flush water-closets are the great danger. We 
have acted favorably upon the plans for the extension 
of the camp of Mr. Albert H. Harris at Little Moose, 
as he has complied strictly with the rules and regulations 
of the Club, although it is to contain some six flush 
closets, including one for the guides' use. 

Bisby proved in both lodge and camps to be almost a 
model in sanitation. There is not a single flush water- 
closet upon that lake. 

Honnedaga, in general, was found to be in good con- 
dition, but we urge that the swamps about the lodge be 
cleaned up and drained. Also, the pipe through which 
the cesspool is emptied has its discharge too near the 
lodge and the lake. The whole neighborhood of Honne- 
daga Lodge and especially the barn and its surroundings 
is much in need of a thorough overhauling and cleaning 
up. The planting of young forest trees and shrubbery 
about the lodge would be a great advantage. Only one 
camp at Honnedaga has a flush water-closet and that 
particular cottage is very seldom occupied. 



24 ANNUAL REPORT. 

Most of the outlying Club camps were inspected and 
the surroundings of all found to be much in need of 
cleaning up. At these camps — indeed everywhere — the 
careless throwing out of bottles, cans, garbage, paper, 
etc., should be prohibited. The deposit of all such matter 
in a neat fire pile or excavation should be strictly insisted 
upon and the lodge managers we believe should be held 
accountable for the sanitary condition of the outlying 
camps in their territory. In addition to this, members, 
guests and guides should be strongly reminded in the 
code and rules not to throw litter of any description any- 
where upon the preserve, but invariably to bury or other- 
wise put it out of sight and, in the case of glass or tin, 
where it will not be a source of danger. The trails and 
landings also should be kept clear of paper, fruit skins, 
bottles, bait-cans, etc. 

Our most important recommendation is that a rule be 
passed by the Trustees prohibiting absolutely the intro- 
duction of water-closets at Bisby or their further exten- 
sion at Honnedaga. 

We commend to your consideration the suggestions 
contained in a letter from Mr. Wicks herewith sub- 
mitted. 

We further suggest that some considerable authority 
be given to Trustees in Charge to handle sanitary emer- 
gencies. 

Our opinion is that the fire pile is yet the best means 
for disposing of and sterilizing refuse. Probably a per- 
manent construction of stone or brick with a reversible 
grating would be more efficient and sightly than the open 
pile. 



ANNUAL REPORT. 2$ 

We think that it would be well to make more rigid the 
rules concerning cutting of timber and poles and to com- 
pel the purchase from other sources than the preserve 
of such materials — especially logs, poles aiid bark. 

As many members and guests fail to read the rules and 
regulations in the Club book we recommend that that 
portion of the annual book be reprinted in leaflet form 
and each year be distributed with the office correspon- 
dence, with guest tickets, and freely to Club houses, 
private camps and Club camps. 

On behalf of the Committee, 

Thomas S. K. Morton, 

Chairman.

(Subject: Adirondack League Club.) 
My Dear Doctor : — I will be unable to come to the 
New York meeting, but I make the following sugges- 
tions : 

Little Moose and possibly Bisby cottagers (I do not 
know about the latter) have gone on so far with plumb- 
ing, etc., that I fear that it may be hard to place such 
restrictions as would be desirable, but I make the follow- 
ing suggestions for your consideration : 

I. No structures, such as ice-house or outhouse, should 
be permitted to come within a certain distance of the 
Lake. 



26 ANNUAL REPORT. 

2. No water closets should be placed in any cottage 
or the Clubhouse on Honnedaga Lake. (A member tried 
very hard to get them placed in the Clubhouse this sea- 
son.) 

3. No water closets should be permitted at Moose 
Lake or Bisby for the guides or servants of the household. 

4. Every member building a new cottage, and those 
who have built, should be required to file with the Club 
a map of their lot, with position of buildings, earth closets, 
water closets, or other plumbing, such as sinks, baths, 
pumps, sludge tanks, water supplies, etc., marked thereon, 
also point where sewage is pumped to, and position of fire 
piles indicated. 

I enclose a map of Miss Williams' property, showing 
the way her work was planned. It may not be the best, 
but such a map as this, carried a little more in detail, 
should be forwarded by the owner in duplicate to the 
Club. We should then approve one copy and return to the 
owner, the other copy to be approved and filed with the 
Secretary of the Club. 

A model map should be printed by the Club to send 
out to owners who are contemplating building. 

And every owner should be compelled to have plans 

of sanitation laid out and constructed under the direction 

of a regular sanitary expert named by the Club and paid 

for by the owner. 

Yours very truly, 

Wm. S. Wicks. 
(Enclosure.) 



ANNUAL REPORT. T.'J 

And now in closing this report let me say a few words 
to the Trustees. In laying aside the office with which 
you have been good enough to entrust me, it remains to 
thank you — and I do that very heartily — not only for the 
honor which has been mine during the past year, but also 
for the sympathy which I have received at your hands 
in the performance of my numerous duties. While I 
have been sensible of shortcomings in the attempt to reach 
that high standard of service which has been established 
by my distinguished predecessors, I am also sensible of 
your leniency and good will in judging the administration 
of a fellow member whose chief aim and pleasure have 
been to serve the interests of the Club to the best of his 
ability. 



LIST OF OUTLYING CAMPS ON THE 

ADIRONDACK LEAGUE CLUB 

PRESERVE. 

LIMEKILN CAMP (sometimes called Otis Camp) is situated 
on Limekiln Creek about two miles from the East Bay of Little 
Moose Lake and is reached by convenient trail. Facilities are 
afforded here for members staying over night, and there is good 
fishing in the vicinity. 

GREEN LAKE CAMP is located on Green Lake, about 
one-quarter of a mile from Moose River and is reached by a 
carry which leaves the river, about half a mile below Limekiln 
Falls. There is Lake Trout fishing in Green Lake and Brook 
Trout fishing in the river, and members can also find conven- 
iences here for staying over night. 

There is an open "lean-to" at the mouth of Limekiln Creek, 
just below the falls, and there is also one at Panther Lake, at 
the end of the carry between that lake and the river. There is 
also a "lean-to" at Pico Lake. 

OTTER BROOK CAMP. A new camp has been built on 
Moose River, near the mouth of Otter Brook, which may be 
reached by carry from Bisby, or by boat and trail up the river 
above Limekiln Falls. This camp was built under the super- 
vision of Mr. George H. Johnson and is a two-story one, new and 
complete in every detail and well furnished, with good accom- 
modations for staying over night. There is good fishing in its 
vicinity.

LIST OF OUTLYING CAMPS. 29 

PROCTOR CAMP is built on the north side of Moose River, 
about half a mile from the end of the carry from Bisby and is 
also reached from Mountain Lodge by trail and boat above 
Limekiln Falls. This camp is a large one-story one, with good 
accommodations for staying over night, and good fishing in the 
vicinity. There is also a small camp a few rods from this one 
which can be used by the guides. A new and commodious 
Proctor Camp will be built this Spring near the old camp. 

CANACHAGALA CAMP is built at the end of the carry 
from Bisby and members will find this a convenient place for 
eating their lunch or protection from the weather in case of a storm. 
It is not provided with accommodations for staying over night. 

COMBS BROOK HATCHERY is located on the trail from 
the river to Combs Lake and is about one-quarter of a mile from 
the river on Combs Brook. Parties will find ample accommoda- 
tions here for staying over night. 

SWANSON DAM CAMP is located on West Canada 
Creek and is reached by trail about two and one-half miles from 
Forest Lodge. Ample accommodations are found here for staying 
over night, and there is good fishing and hunting in the vicinity. 

WICKS CAMP is on West Canada Creek, located on the 
Second Stillwater and is about four and one-half miles above 
Swanson Dam Camp. Excellent accommodations can be ob- 
tained here for staying over night, and there is good fishing and 
hunting in the vicinity. 

JONES LAKE CAMP is located on Jones Lake, about 
three miles by trail from Forest Lodge. This camp has been 
enlarged and renovated since last season and offers ample ac- 
commodations for large parties staying over night. Good fishing 
and hunting prevail in the vicinity. 



3© LIST OF OUTLYING CAMPS. 

OTTER LAKE CAMP is located on Otter Lake, about two 
and one-half miles by trail and boat from Jones Lake, and good 
accommodations can be obtained here for staying over night. 
Good fishing in the lake and also in Goose Lake, three-quarters 
of a mile distant. 

COBBLESTONE CAMP is situated on the west bank of 
Cobblestone Creek, a short distance below the end of the Jones 
Lake carry. There is good Brook Trout fishing and hunting in 
the vicinity, but the camp is owned by Mr. N. B. Nelson, with 
whom it has thus far been impossible to arrange terms for its 
occupancy by Club members as such. 

SNYDER LAKE CAMP, at Snyder Lake, is reached by 
trail four miles from Honnedaga Lake. Members will find rough 
accommodations here for staying over night— sleeping-bunk 
with bough bed. Good hunting in the vicinity. There is excellent 
fishing at Horn Lake, two miles distant, and at Indian River, 
three miles from this camp. 

LITTLE DEER LAKE CAMP is also near Snyder Lake, 
and is now owned by the Club. Rough accommodations, — sleep- 
ing-bunk with bough bed. 

MILLER CAMP is located on the lower Indian River and 
is reached via Swanson Dam. Good accommodations can be 
obtained here for staying over night, and there is excellent 
fishing and hunting in the vicinity. 

NORTH LAKE CAMP, situated on the west side of the 
lake at the end of the Canachagala Lake carry, is usually 
occupied by one of the Club's game wardens and may be found 
convenient for protection from the weather in case of storm by 
members passing through between Bisby and Honnedaga. 



LIST OF TREES OCCURRING OR LIKELY TO 
OCCUR ON THE CLUB PRESERVE. 



Prepared by Bernhard E. Fernow, LL.D. 



^.—CONIFERS OR CONE BEARERS. 

These, with one exception, the larch, are evergreen, their fruit 
in cones composed of scales attached to a spindle, the winged 
seeds lying under the scales. 

SPRUCES. 

Recognized by their sharp-pointed leaves or needles setting 
all around the twigs or shoots and by their pendulous cones, 
which, when they fall, remain entire. 

There are three species, not easily distinguished ; the first 
mentioned being the most common : 

1. Red Spruce {Picea rubra or rubens). The real lumber 
tree. Bark breaking into small, roundish, reddish brown plates. 

2. Black Spruce {Picea Mariana or nigra), also called 
Double or Swamp Spruce, found mostly in swamps. A smaller, 
slender tree, recognized by its dark bluish-green, short needles, 
rather blunt at the apex and appressed to the twig, and by its 
small, roundish cones, smaller than those of Red Spruce. Bark 
dark, scaly and flaky. 

3. White Spruce {Picea alba or Canadensis), also called Cat 
Spruce or Skunk Spruce on account of the disagreeable smell it 
emits when bruised ; readily recognized also by the elongated 
cylindrical cones ; leaves sharp and usually longer than those of 
the other two spruces. Bark light-colored plates. 

4. Balsam Fir {Abies balsamea). largely found in swamps 
but also on uplands to the mountain tops. Recognized by the 



32 



LIST OF TREES. 



flat, blunt leaves, white underneath, arranged more or less in 
two ranks, aromatic ; and by the upright, cylindrical cones, the 
scales falling away and leaving the spindles standing like Christ- 
mas candles. Crown sharply conical on full-grown trees. Bark 
smooth, whitish-gray. 

6. Hemlock ( Tsuga Canadensis). Foliage similar to balsam 
but shorter and not aromatic. Cones very small, pendulous, 
falling, like spruce, entire. Bark dark brown, deeply ridged in 

old trees. 

PINES. 

Recognized by having two or more long leaves or needles 
bunched in a sheath. Cones pendulous and much larger in our 
species than those of other conifers. 

6. White Pine {Ptnus Strobus), readily recognized by having 
five long, whitish, slender needles in a sheath ; long cylindrical 
cones with smooth scales ; grayish, smooth bark in young ; dark, 
more or less ridgy bark in old trees. Found especially along 
water courses and ponds. 

■ 7. Red or Norway Pine {Ptnus resz'nosa), not found in 
Norway. Has three long, stiff, sharp-pointed, pale-green needles 
in a sheath ; cones with thick scales and stout prickles. Bark 
reddish-brown. Found in poor, sandy and gravelly soils, near 
water and on openings. Less common than White Pine. 

8. White Cedar ( Thuja Occident alts), the well-known Arbor- 
vitae ; the very short, sharp-pointed needles closely adherent, 
overlapping each other and entirely enclosing the branchlet, 
forming flat sprays ; the small conelets consist of only a few 
scales. Bark in young trees smooth reddish-gray ; in old trees 
ridgy and flaky, gray with red-brown tinge ; fibrous. In swamps 
and near water. 

9. Tamarack or American Larch {Larix Americana or 
laricina). The one conifer which loses its leaves in winter, when 
it can be readily recognized by the little "buttons " on all twigs, 
the bases or dwarf branchlets on which the foliage sat ; the latter 
in rosettes or bunches. The small cones resemble the smallest 
spruce cones, but stand erect. Mostly in open, swampy ground. 



LIST OF TREES. 33 

^.— BROAD LEAF OR DECIDUOUS TREES. 

These lose their foliage in winter when they can still be 
recognized by the buds, bark and arrangement of twigs. 

MAPLES. 

These are the most common deciduous species in the Adiron- 
dacks, especially the first mentioned. Recognized by the much 
indented foliage and the branch arrangement, which is in 
opposites. Fruit consisting of two winged seeds, called keys. 

10. Sugar or Rock Maple {Acer saccharum or bar datum 
or saccharinutn). Leaves usually broader than long with smooth 
margin and usually five smoothly rounded, wavy indentations and 
drawn-out blunt teeth, dark green above, slightly paler below. 
Sharp-pointed reddish-brown winter buds. Bark gray, very 
smooth and close in young trees ; fissured in long, thick plates, in 
old ; sometimes shaggy. A large tree. 

A variety, the Black Maple (var. nigrum), is recognized by 
the larger, darker, drooping foliage. 

11. Red or Swamp Maple {Acer rubrum), a medium-sized 
tree found mostly in lowlands and swamps, but also on rocky 
hillsides. Foliage dark green above, light colored to sometimes 
white and more or less hairy beneath ; usually only three lobes 
with sharp indentations and margin more or less evenly toothed. 
Buds dark-reddish and young shoots often reddish. Bark in 
young trees much like Sugar Maple, in old often in long flakes ; 
recognized by the close, dark gray bark of younger branches. 

12. White or Silver Maple {Acer saccharinum or dasycarp- 
um). A medium-sized, rather rare tree, recognized by the very 
much and sharply cut leaves with many uneven teeth on margin, 
usually five-lobed, pale green above and whitish to silver-white 
beneath. Slender buds and conspicuous flowers. Branches often 
gracefully pendulous. Bark in older trees separating into thin, 
loose scales ; young shoots chestnut colored and young branches 
lighter than the preceding. Found here and there through the 
woods, especially near streams, but not in swamps. 



34 LIST OF TREES. 

13. Striped Maple, Moosewood or Whistlewood {Acer 
Pennsylvanicum). A handsome, small tree found throughout 
the woods, especially in dark places, readily recognized by the 
green and darkish striped bark and the very large, rather flabby, 
dark green foliage and the graceful pendants of flowers and fruit 
clusters. 

14. Mountain Maple {Acer spicatum). A small, gray-barked 

tree or mostly shrub found in open places through the woods, 

with smaller foliage and fruit than all the other maples, the latter 

in pendants. 

BIRCHES. 

Next to the maples in frequency, especially the first men- 
tioned. Recognized by the slender brushlike or pendulous 
branchlets, the silvery to white bark and entire, toothed leaves ; 
sharp-pointed, irregularly placed buds, small cone-like fruit, and 
male flowers in catkins. 

15. Yellow Birch {Betula lutea). A large tree, common 
through the woods, with silvery-gray bark at least in younger trees 
and branches, peeling oflf in fine, silky layers. Leaves oblong, 
coarsely aud doubly toothed. 

Although lumbermen talk of Cherry Birch the true Cherry 
Birch {B. lento) does not occur in this part of the Adirondacks, 
the name referring to reddish wood of some Yellow Birch trees. 

16. 'Pt.^t.i ox ZsLno^'Bvic\i {Betula papyrif era). A medium- 
sized tree usually found in special localities, and mainly on 
mountain slopes. Distinguished yom the next which is like this, 
a white-barked tree, by the shape of the foliage (oval or ovate) 
and the stouter branching ; also by the ovate buds. 

17. White or Gray Birch {Betula populifolid). A small, 
short-lived tree with white bark and triangular shaped leaves, 
slender branchlets often drooping. Found mostly in open places 
and burnt lands. 

18. American Beech {Fagus ferruginea or Americana). A 
large tree, next in frequency to Sugar Maple and Yellow Birch. 
Recognized by the smooth, unfissured, gray bark and leathery. 



LIST OF TREES. 35 

finely and regularly toothed foliage. In winter the long, sharp- 
pointed buds may assist in recognizing it. 

19. American or White Elm {Ulvius Americana). A very 
large tree found sporadically, recognized by the ash-gray, firm, 
ridgy bark and by the habit of continuous forking ; i. e., dividing 
into two equal branches, with reddish-brown branchlets and 
ovate brown buds. Leaves at base very uneven, oval, doubly 
toothed. Fruit a samara ; seed all surrounded by the wing. 

If the Slippery Elm ( Uhnusfulva) is found, it can be recog- 
nized by the dark brown old bark, the slimy inner bark on 
peeling, and the very much larger leaves, hairy above and woolly 
beneath. 

ASHES. 

These like the maples, have their leaves and branchlets 
opposite, but they have compound leaves, usually seven leaflets 
making the leaf, and in winter are recognized by their thick, 
short triangular or pyramidal buds, and the short, very little 
diversified branching ; also by the ridgy bark. 

20. White Ash {Fraxinus Americana). A large tree found 
only sporadically, with ovate leaflets, their margins almost with- 
out teeth. Bark easily distinguished by the very prominent, 
uniform and firm ridges, of light gray color. The buds are a 
rusty brown. 

21. Black Ash or Swamp Ash {Fraxinus nigra or sambu- 
cifolicL). Usually a somewhat smaller tree than the former, 
mostly in swamps. Easily distinguished by the foliage, the 
leaflets having no stalks, being much longer than those of the 
former and regularly toothed. Buds black or nearly so. Bark 
ash-gray, often separating into fine flakes. 

If the Red Ash {Fraxinus Pennslyvanica) should be found, 
the smaller reddish-brown buds, the greenish-gray, somewhat 
velvety branchlets and the downy leafstalks will distinguish it. 

22. Basswood or Linden {Tilta Americana). This large 
tree is found in few localities of the Adirondacks, but possibly on 
the Club Preserve, Its large, broad, roundish leaves with heart- 



36 LIST OF TREES. 

shaped base, its peculiar pea-shaped fruit pending from a rib of a 
leaf -bract, its red, thick buds on short branchlets curved back and 
its dark gray, smooth looking, yet fissured bark, distinguish it, 

23. Black Cherry {Prunus serotina). This tall, relatively 
slender tree is found here and there in single individuals. Its 
eliptical, finely-toothed, firm leaves are glossy above and paler 
below by which it is distinguished from other cherries. 

In old trees the irregular, thick, blackish scales of the bark 
and the long branchless bole with a small, thin crown help to 
recognize it ; in young trees, the bitter taste of the bark, reddish- 
brown, with small oblong raised dots. 

24. Pin Cherry or Bird Cherry or Wild Red Cherry {Prunus 

Pennsylvanicd). A small, slender tree in openings and burns. 
Foliage light green and shiny on both sides. 

If the Choke Cherry {Prunus Virgtniana or demzssa) should 
be found, the paler foliage with roundish or slightly heart-shaped 
base will distinguish it. 

25. Large-toothed Aspen {Populus grandidentata). Only 
in openings and bums ; a small tree with greenish, gray bark 
and oval, widely toothed leaves. 

26. Quaking Aspen {Populus tremulotdes). Found usually 
together with the other ; with a greenish-white to white bark ; 
leaves similar in outline to the former but finely toothed. 

If the Balm of Gilead or Balsam Poplar {Populus balsamiferd) 
should be found, its very sticky, fragrant brown, large buds and 
its lance-shaped, tapering leaves suffice to distinguish it. 

27. Shadbush or June Berry {Amelanchier Canadensis) is a 
shrub or small tree, whose white, conspicuous clusters of apple- 
blossom-like flowers enliven the early spring before leaves are 
out. Its small, oblong, finely toothed leaves with pointed apex 
suggest a delicate roseleaf. Its bluish- black, plum like fruit is 
edible. 

28. Mountain Ash {Sorbus or Pyrus Americana), A small 
tree found here and there, well known for its bright clusters of 



LIST OF TREES. 37 

yellowish-red fruit, has compound leaves, the 11-19 leaflets 
oblong, finely and sharply toothed ; the buds peculiarly shaped 
like a scythe. Smooth, gray bark. 

29. Ironwood or Hop Hornbeam {Ostrya Virginiand). A 
small tree found sporadically through the woods. Its name 
comes from the fruit which resembles hops. Its foliage some- 
what like Yellow Birch but smaller and more elongated. Its 
bark finely shaggy, dark. Prized for its toughness. 

30. Hornbeam, Blue Beech, Ironwood {Carpinus Carolini- 
ana) may occur, A small tree like the former, with similar 
foliage, but entirely different fruit, conspicuous by the leaflike 
three-lobed bract in which the nutlets are inserted. The bark is 
gray and smooth like beech to which the tree otherwise has 
resemblance. 

In addition to these some Tree Willows are to be found. In 
other parts of the Adirondacks the Red Oak {Quercus rubra) 
and the Red Cedar {Juniper us Virginiand) occur, but probably 
not on the Club property.

the boats belonging to the Club upon the waters thereof shall be 
under the control of the Manager of such Lodge. 

Parties desiring to use any of the outlying camps or boats

56 CLUB RULES. 

be assigned the use of such camps or boats for a period not ex- 
ceeding two days. In the event, however, the same are not wanted 
by another party the time may be extended by the Manager. 

Parties occupying outlying camps, or using boats belonging 
to the Club on the outlying waters, shall be held strictly respon- 
sible for any injury done to the camps, furniture or boats, or 
failure to keep the same in good and satisfactory condition. 

GUESTS. 

1. Guests may be introduced by members to the privileges 
of the Preserve and Club Houses, or by invitation of the Club 
through its President or Executive Committee, but guests will 
not be entertained at a Club House to the exclusion of members. 

2. A member can have but one male guest at a Club House 
at a time, for two weeks only; not renewable in the same year 
for the same person; but the Trustee in charge appointed for 
each Lodge may endorse on guest tickets extension of time. 

3. Members' families are entitled to Club privileges and the 
preceding guest restrictions do not apply to women. A mem- 
ber's family, for the purpose of this section, does not include men 
above the age of 21. 

4. Guest tickets signed by the President may be obtained 
from the Secretary, but members applying for them must furnish 
the guest's name and date of visit. The Secretary is not allowed 
to furnish blank tickets. 

5. The guest must register at one of the Club Houses on 
his arrival and present his guest card to the Manager, who will 
record the number, name of guest and inviting member, and 
date of presentation. He will then countersign the same and 
return to holder. This rule must be inforced. 

6. No guest shall be permitted to fish or hunt on the Pre- 
serve in the absence, — from the Preserve, — of the inviting 
member, or a member of his or her family. — Art. II., Sec. 5, By- 
Laws. No exception shall be made to this rule except where a 
member has accompanied his guest to the Preserve in good 
faith and is unexpectedly called away by some business or other 
pressing engagement. 



CLUB RULES, 57 

7. There is no restriction as to number of guests in private 
cottages, but such guests, whether men or women, have no fishing 
or hunting rights, or right to be upon the Preserve, except such 
as are secured by guest's cards duly recorded with the Manager 
of the adjacent Lodge. Not more than one guest at a time, how- 
ever, shall be allowed to fish or hunt on the score of one member. 
(As amended March 14, 1905).

FISH AND GAME RECORDS. 

Members and guests, whether living in one of the Club

weight of fish taken and of deer and game birds killed. A book 
for that purpose is kept at each Lodge. This important rule

Hunting and fishing on the first day of the week constitutes a 
misdemeanor under the laws of the State of New York. (Penal 
Code, Sec. 365.) Members and Guests will respect this law. 

FIRE-WOOD. 

The stumpage charges for fire-wood taken from Club lands 
for use by cottagers or campers shall be for, — 



6o CLUB RULES. 

STOVE-WOOD 15 inches, or less, in length, 20 cents 
per cord. 

STOVE-WOOD 15 to 20 inches in length, 25 cents per cord. 

FIRE-PLACE WOOD 3^ feet, or less, in length, 25 cents 
per cord. 

It is understood that fire-place wood will be taken from the 
parts of the tree not suitable for stove-wood, and will include the 
limbs down to 2 inches in diameter. 

No cutting of wood on Club lands is permitted without per- 
mission first had from the Trustee in charge, or the Executive 
Committee. 

RUSTIC RAILINGS AND DECORATIONS. 

No spruce tree of less than 6 inches diameter at the butt shall 
be cut on the Club Preserve. (As adopted March, 1905.) 

CAMP SITES AND STRUCTURES, 

1. Cottages and camp sites are private property, held subject 
to restrictions involving the interest of other members. 

2. Tree cutting is subject to the approval or disapproval of 
the Trustees. No clearing or cutting of trees on the lake front is 
permitted without the approval of the Trustee being first had. 
This rule is mandatory and is a part of the restricted ownership 
of Club lots. The shore scenery belongs to all members and 
any cutting of trees should be carefully considered with respect 
to the interest and enjoyment of all. For the purpose of making 
this important rule effective, lot owners are notified to report to 
and consult with the Trustee in charge before cutting any trees 
or making any shore improvements. 

3. No fences are permitted. 

4. Plans of all structures must be approved by the Trustees 
and the Committee on Sanitary Regulations and Building before 
construction. No camp or other structure, excepting tents, shall 
be erected on land owned or controlled by the Club, without 
previous authorization by the Trustees or the Executive Commit- 
tee, and every camp or structure so authorized to be built, shall 
at all times be the exclusive property of the Club, and as such, be 
under the control of the Trustees, (As adopted March 14, 1905). 



CLUB RULES. 6l 

5. Members having camps on Honnedaga Lake who desire 
the Club Launch to deliver mail or stop for any purpose at their 
respective camp sites, must provide a permanent or floating 
dock, so located with respect to navigation, that landings can be 
made without necessitating any change in the general direction 
of the Launch course. 

6. The disposal of waste must be strictly in accordance with 
the following " Sanitary Regulations. " 

SANITARY REGULATIONS. 

GENERAL RULES, 

The location of all camps and particularly of all out-buildings, 
closets, cesspools, are controlled by the Club, through its Sanitary 
and Building Committee. Submitted plans must show in detail 
all house plumbing, location of drains, cesspools and earth 
closets; methods of sewage disposal and the water supply. Such 
plans having been approved by the Sanitary and Building Com- 
mittee, the finished work will be inspected and passed upon by 
the Club's representative appointed for the purpose. 

WATER SUPPLY. 

The lakes and streams are important sources of potable 
water, and the Club, therefore, must enforce stringent regula- 
tions against the pollution of the same, in any manner, direct or 
indirect. Even springs and streams on the lots of members 
must, for sanitary reasons, remain under the Club's control. 

EARTH CLOSETS. 

The ordinary privy and privy vault or pit are entirely pro- 
hibited. Any closet, except of the improved earth type, or any 
similar receptacle, must not be placed within 50 feet of lakes, 
streams or springs, and would be better at a distance of 100 feet. 
Water-tight receptacles of a form to be readily handled and 
cleaned must be so arranged as to receive all matters without 
soiling surrounding woodwork, ground, &c. For house use the 
more elaborate earth closet, such as the one patented by Heap 



62 CLUB RULES. 

and sold by Sargent, may be used. For general use a simple 
structure with large galvanized pails will be found mOst con- 
venient and satisfactory. A good, tight box is admissible, but it 
is apt to become offensive unless kept well filled with ashes and 
duff, and the front protected with slate or tin to prevent satura- 
tion. Under the usual conditions found on the Club tract, fine 
dry wood ashes or duflf are the most natural and satisfactory 
absorbents for use in the closets. The inoffensive condition of 
closets depends simply on the use of a sufficient quantity of such 
material in a fine dry state, and a frequent emptying of pails and 
receptacles. The ashes or duff should be well dried, screened 
and stored in boxes or barrels under cover readily accessible to 
the one in charge of the closets. Each closet should be provided 
with a box of ashes, &c., with a shovel. The pail contents should 
be frequently removed and burned on the fire pile. The use of 
ashes or dry duff instead of earth, lime, &c., will permit of this 
being done. 

LIQUID WASTES. 

Modern plumbing fixtures with water-carried sewage should 
be discouraged, as greatly complicating the problem of sewage 
disposal. The kitchen sink, hand basin and bath may waste into 
a pail or a barrel on wheels, and so avoid the necessity for a 
cesspool. A cesspool means the larger use of water and the 
retention of wastes till they become offensive and dangerous, 
and the difficulty of finding simple and safe methods of their 
disposal results. When it is desired to put in more elaborate 
plumbing the owner must submit for approval a complete and 
satisfactory system for sewage disposal. If the conditions of the 
site in question be considered not feasible, then the more simple 
method will be required. 

Cesspools, if permitted within 250 feet (and under no condi- 
tion to be nearer than 50 feet of any lake or water course) must 
be water-tight and frequently pumped out and contents dis- 
tributed over the surface back of the 250 foot limit, when the 
contour of surface permits, care being taken to prevent the 
saturation of any one spot, as little purification then takes place. 
The liquid may be distributed through a hose by hand-pump, 



CLUB RULES. 6^ 

on two or more suitable places in the woods, prepared by remov- 
ing the leaf mold and duff and roughly leveling the surface. 
House waste, chamber slops and wash water must be disposed 
of while fresh by distributing them over as large an area of 
open sunny ground as may be practicable, at least 200 feet back 
from the lake, if the shores permit, and they must not be thrown 
continuously on the sarse spot. The disposal of these liquid 
wastes on the fire pile is not satisfactory, as the ground about the 
fire becomes saturated and the water runs away unpurified. 

The disposal of waste from cottages or camps built at foot of 
steep rises of high hills or mountains is a problem for the Sani- 
tary Engineer to solve. In every such case his services should 
be secured. 

FIRE PILES, 

The use of the fire pile, or the modern incinerator, for the 
destruction of all refuse must be strictly enforced. The fire pile 
should be established at least 100 feet distant from anj' lake or 
stream when practicable. It should be roughly built of stones, 
the duff, &c. , removed and the earth banked to prevent spread 
of fire, and the washing away of unconsumed and unpurified 
matter. The incinerator may be placed where most convenient. 

GARBAGE AND REFUSE. 

In place of the "fire pile," a small furnace or crematory, like 
or similar to that in use by the State Militia, may be used to 
advantage. 

Kitchen garbage and refuse of all kinds should be burned on 
the fire pile while fresh, and not thrown on the pile and allowed 
to remain till sour and offensive. Care in burning is necessary 
to prevent a nuisance from odors and smoke, and a large, hot 
fire should be kept up till all is consumed.
